naturallyherb | BC Transit Whistler | ride on 1134 on 20 Cheakamus (2017 New Flyer XN40) @naturallyherb | Uploaded 5 years ago | Updated 1 hour ago
A transit system not often filmed, here's the full route of 20 Cheakamus running between Whistler Village and Cheakamus Crossing, a new neighbourhood to the south of Whistler that is also home to the HI Whistler hostel.
The New Flyer XN40 Xcelsior is one of 25 new compressed natural gas (CNG) buses on order for this year to improve services throughout the area as well as being a testbed for alternative fuels for buses.
This was filmed at the end of my visit to Whistler Blackcomb, and it has been a challenging few days of skiing due to the whiteout conditions in the alpine, as well as the fresh snow and ever-changing conditions. Nevertheless, my visit last year was much better as the sky was very clear and the highest elevations of both Whistler and Blackcomb mountains were open, giving a stunning view of the surroundings. Adding a bit of spice to this visit this year was that I did the Whistler Bungee, which was absolutely amazing!
The end-to-end route running time is 25 minutes, and system maps (credits to BC Transit website) are included in the beginning of the video.
